burning of the midnight lamp

[brandywine28]

Was anyone else aware that there's a Cramp mention on *NSYNC's TV Tropes page? 'Cos there is.

Whoever's responsible for this: Je t'adore.

And now I'm kind of wildly desperate to find out whether anyone's actually written JC/Leo pendant. I'm having trouble with the logistics of gettin' freaky with what is essentially a piece of string, but I know in my heart that if anyone has a shot at figuring it out, it's someone from popslash.

*laughs* I kind of adore you for this post :)

[brandywine28.livejournal.com]

Well I had to alert the public, didn't I?

(But, yes: adore me! Praise me! LOVE ME! *clings to you*)

Ack! I just fell into that page and it took me quite some time to resurface. That is a dangerous, dangerous site.

[brandywine28.livejournal.com]

Oh man, I should've tagged this post with warnings. That site is a total black hole. If you're gonna venture in there again, you really ought to bring a flashlight and, like, spelunking equipment.

Bwahahahahaaa! Justin/sneakers gets a mention too!

Also...apparently Justin used to sing 'As Long As You Love Me' to JC. Which Justin has Tweeted about. I was thinking about not writing for MtYG this year, but I think you might just have tipped me over the edge into HELL, YES!

And this comment is tempting me to sign up for MtYG after all. ;)

Dooooooooooooooooooooooo iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiit!!!

[ullman79.livejournal.com]

I did it! :D

[brandywine28.livejournal.com]

Hooray! Cue the balloon drop!

[nopseud]

YAY!

[brandywine28.livejournal.com]

A-ha! So my definitely-not-evil plan worked, then! EXCELLENT.

(Let's be real, here: Justin/sneakers deserves its very own article -- such is its magnificence :)

[nopseud]

I suspect Justin/Sneakers is the kind of thing that prompted the comment I heard from him in a radio interview, where he said he googled his own name once, and then he never did it again. Well. That and the Lynncest. :-)

[brandywine28.livejournal.com]

Ha! Yeah, well. I wish I felt sorry for partially contributing to The Skeeving of Justin, but...no. I'll apologize for enjoying Lynncest when HE apologizes for that hideous tattoo. :)

OMG Wooby

Wooby!Chris. It makes me sad. I want to hug him.

Chris is the ULTIMATE woobie! I wanna dress him up in a strawberry costume like one of those Annie Leibovitz babies!

Although to be strictly accurate, they don't seem to have quite grasped the full glory of the pairing that is Cramp. I'm afraid the mere notion that Chris owned a lava lamp and JC broke it just isn't enough.

That page is, however, awesome! I mean. Awesome.

[mickeym.livejournal.com]

*Nothing* can truly grasp the fully glory of Cramp.

Lava lamps, HO!

[pensnest]

Oh, and if anyone could get freaky with a piece of string, you know it would be JC.

[brandywine28.livejournal.com]

Hee. Don't I know it. :)

I'd really love to find this phantom pendant!fic, though; I feel like, by gauging its exact level of crackishness, I could learn SO MUCH. Like, is it a sentient string? Can it -- can it do...stuff?

[pensnest]

I have to reply with this icon, because yes.

[brandywine28.livejournal.com]

OK, Lance, you win -- you can put it wherever you want! Just -- stop LEERING!

:)

[solariana.livejournal.com]

Great stuff, thank you for sharing!

[brandywine28.livejournal.com]

Aw, anytime! :)

Letterboys made it to their TV trope page.

Letterboys.

LETTERBOYS.

*supersonic noises of GLEE*

[morgana-st.livejournal.com]

Ha, I thought of you when I saw that.

[brandywine28.livejournal.com]

I know!! Their love cannot be denied, yo! Even shadowy, mysterious outliers can see it!

There are a few little inconsistencies here and there (like, TrickC *isn't* listed as a popular pairing, even though it's implied that JC intended "Up Against the Wall" as an ode to Chris' sexiness, which -- ??? Awesome interpretation, but HUH?), but mostly I just wanna send a huge fruit bouquet to whoever wrote this.
